Consistency, not just pace is what fast bowlers should strive for: Shane Bond

At the peak of his career, Shane Bond was considered a worthy successor to New Zealand bowling legend Sir Richard Hadlee. His fastest recorded delivery of 156.4 km/h in the 2003 World Cup would have sent danger signals to most batting line-ups around the world and also marked him for greater heights of achievement in the future. To date he has the second best strike-rate in Test cricket amongst bowlers who have bowled a minimum of 2,500 deliveries.
